CONTINUED UNTIL OCTOBER.
The Petition of Florine Wilson against
DOC" Levi Wilson for Divorce.

PROVIDENCE, II. l., July 9.-The Supreme
Court today continued to the October term
the petition of Florine Wilson against doc"
Levi Wilson for absolute divorce, and per-
mission has again been accorded the petit
toner to add to her petition the charge of
adultery. When notice Of continuance was
made, Wilson's attorney Immediately set to
work to secure the rights enjoyed while the
case was pending previous to the attempt Of
''Doc' to take his own life. The court has
heretofore made an order allowing the re-
sp0ndent during the pendency of the suit to
have the children brought to his residence
twice week. Subsequently an order was
made resembling the first order, it being
shown to the court that the respondent had
attempted to poison himself.
The respondent alleges that when the first
order was in effect the children were not
brought regularly to him, and that his at
tempt at suicide was caused by an uneOn-
trollable impulse Of despair on receiving
letter from his wife, stating that she did not
want to live with him and meant to prose-
cute her petition for divorce. which letter he
has since learned was wrung from her by
coercion, exerted by her father, who die
tated the words. lie says that he has a
house furnished with everything convenient
for the reception and care Of his wife and
all former DEGREES and the entry of new
one granting to him the custody Of the chill
dren.
The petitioner resists the motion on the
ground that her husband is not a safe person
to be allowed the custody of the children, as
ne is unable to control his impulses and his
next move may be to kill them instead OF
himself. She says that although her hus-
band has hired and furnished house, it has
been attached, and is in the possession Of
keeper, and that though the court should re-
fuse to Mr.. Wilson the custody of the chill
dren, he ought not to be allowed to see them
while in her custody, as she would then be
compelled TO remain in town, while her
health is so impaired by anxiety and fear Of
him that medical authority has decided that
II is her imperative duty to seek more brac-
ing air than that Of Providence.
The court, stating that the first decree
was rescinded only until Mr.. Wilson could
show that his mental condition was such as
would warrant his being allowed visits from
his children, entered a decree allowing to
him the company and society of his children
on Tuesday and Saturday afternoons of each
week until further notice at his residence at
4S Bridgham street, to remain there not
longer than from 2 to p. m, the respondent
to notify his wife Of the hour he desires to
have them sent.

RuMoR THAT A REVOLUTION
In the Hawaiian Islands Has Actually
Occurred.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, July 9.-The steam
ship Mariposa, which arrived from Australia
this morning, having touched at the Haw-
allan Islands, brings the important informa-
tion that the expected revolution in the
Hawaiian kingdom has actually occurred.
The populace organized and demanded the
downfall of the ministry and the addiction
of the King. Residents of Honolulu and the
surrounding country assumed the powers of
government. The volunteer military forces
of the kingdom were with them.
AS a result, the Gibson ministry has fallen,
and cabinet named by the people, headed
by William M. Green, has been appointed.
King Kalakaua is permitted to remain ON the
throne, although divested of all present pow
er having acceded to the demand for new
constitution and to abide by the will of the
people.
The King was thoroughly alarmed, and on
July called meeting of the American min
lister, the British commissioner, the French
commissioner and the Portuguese commits
sioner, to whom he offered to transfer the
pro TEN powers vested in him as King. These
officials refused to accept the trust but advis-
| ed the King to lose no time in framing new
constitution, which advice he followed. Wal
ter NJ Gibson, his son-in-law, and +. II. Hay
seldom, are under arrest, having been seizeC
by the civic troops when attempting to es
cape.

Wellington started in the horse business
when young man. He bought mare
down in Lincoln that developed very fast
and he sold her for long price TO go to a
Massachusetts breeding farm. She foaled a
little horse known as little Claude that
proved very fast and won a fast race at Ban

the old track. From her he went 10 others

Hambletonlan Knox. This horse is produe-
